Something seems not quite right.

To those addressing "affordable housing", well, those requirements are part of the reason we get boring, beige buildings. Those costs have to be made up somehow, and less than appealing designs is one way that is done.
None of what you said is true.

Affordable has had nothing to do with the designs of past buildings and has only been an incentive in the last couple of years.

It will have no affect on the design of this building or any building.

And it has yet to be seen if this developer will offer those prices. It's just one council person voicing their opinion.
